Rams Football –
The Rams (1-5) suffered a heartbreaking loss at UBC on Saturday, taking a
one-point lead on the first play of the fourth but surrendering a pair of
rouges – including with two minutes remaining – in the final quarter to lose
33-32. The Rams now need to win both of their remaining games to make the
postseason and will also require some help on the out-of-town scoreboard.
Fortunately for the Rams, both of their final games are at home – beginning
with Saturday’s Week 7 matchup against Manitoba at Mosaic Stadium (2 p.m.).

Women’s Volleyball –
The Cougars (0-2) started out their conference season on the road last weekend
with a three-set loss to Manitoba on Friday and a four-set loss to the Bisons
on Saturday afternoon. The Cougars will now prepare for their Canada West home
openers this weekend at the Centre for Kinesiology, Health & Sport, as
they’ll host Winnipeg (3-1) on Friday (6:00 p.m.) and Saturday (5:00 p.m.).

Men’s Volleyball –
After opening up Canada West play with a pair of road losses to Manitoba, the
Cougars (0-2) will play their first home conference matches of the season this
Friday (7:30 p.m.) and Saturday (6:30 p.m.) against Winnipeg (3-1). The men’s
matches will follow the conclusion of the women’s matches both nights.

Women’s Hockey –
The Cougars (1-2-2-1) recorded their third consecutive weekend split on Friday
and Saturday, losing 5-3 to No. 10 Calgary in the first game of the two-game
set before Emma Waldenberger’s successful attempt in the first round of the
shootout stood as the only goal of the game in a 1-0 U of R win on Saturday
afternoon. The Cougars are back in action this weekend with a pair of road
games at No. 5 UBC (3-1-1-1).

Men’s Basketball –
The Cougars won two of their three games on their road swing against NAIA
opposition last weekend, starting out with a 69-63 win over Dickinson State on
Friday. They were then edged 79-71 by Mayville State before finishing the trip
with a strong effort in an 82-63 victory over Jamestown on Sunday. The Cougars
are back at it this weekend with a trip to Ontario for a non-conference
tournament hosted by Brock that will see them play York, Windsor, and the host
Badgers.

Cross Country (Men’s CIS Ranking: No. 9) – Now entering the stretch run of the 2014 schedule, the
men’s and women’s cross country teams will travel to Calgary this Saturday to
run in the Stewart Cup. It’ll be the final race for both Cougar teams before
the 2014 CIS Championships, which will be hosted on Nov. 8 by Memorial
University in St. John’s, N.L.

Wrestling –
The Cougars have their first meet of the 2014-15 season this weekend, as the
men’s and the women’s teams will make the trip west to participate in the Dinos
Invitational at the University of Calgary. It’s the first of three consecutive
weekends of competition for the women’s team, with the Cougars also to compete
in the Clan International on Nov. 1 and the Wesmen Invitational on Nov. 8.

Men’s Hockey –
The Cougars (0-8-0) lost twice at Calgary last weekend, falling 5-0 on Saturday
before having their comeback fall just short in a 3-2 loss on Saturday that saw
them come back from a three-goal deficit with third-period goals by Austin
Bourhis and Cody Fowlie. The Cougars will have this weekend off to regroup
before returning to action on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1 at home against UBC.

Women’s Basketball –
The Cougars went 2-1 at a non-conference tournament hosted by McGill over the
weekend, defeating both Toronto and Lakehead but losing to the host Martlets.
Alyssia Kajati led the Cougars in scoring all three games, piling up 23 on
Friday, 14 on Saturday, and 21 on Sunday. The Cougars finish non-conference
play with an 8-3 record against CIS competition and will have a weekend off
before travelling to Victoria to begin Canada West play on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1.

Women’s Soccer – The Cougars (5-5-2) were eliminated from postseason
contention after 3-0 and 3-1 road losses to Saskatchewan on Saturday and
Sunday. The matches are the final of the 2014 season for the Cougars, who
finish in fifth place in the Prairie Division with 17 points and will graduate
fifth-year players Molly Glass, Melanie King, and Jayde McFee
